Abstract. The integration of COTS components into a system under development entails architectural mismatches. These have been tackled, so far, at the component level, through comp...
Usually complex systems are controlled by an operator co-operating with a computer-based controller. The controlling software runs in continuous interaction with the operator and c...
Coloured Petri Nets (CP-nets or CPNs) and their supporting computer tools have been used in a wide range of application areas such as communication protocols, software designs, and...
Modular design methodologies, which decompose large and complex systems into components that are relatively easy to develop and maintain, have been widely adopted in the software ...
Class cohesion could be used to evaluate the design quality of classes, to develop test measures for objectoriented software and to restructure poorly designed classes. Among a nu...
